Very interesting stage ... relatively flat then a lumpy bumpy finish. Sagan perhaps looks good for win again but the finish is quite a lot steeper than Stage 1 and more of a true climber with a kick would be a better bet. But who?

Iglinsky and Da Costa 150-1 with "bet-a-day". Peter Velits 200-1 with Irishman, Sammy Sanchez 50-1 everywhere. Haven't made up my mind yet! Will let you know who I plump for .... if anyone cares!!

Paddy Power went 10/1 Sagan at around 5:30 - got filled in there

This might be one of the stages that Evans has earmarked to gain a few seconds over Wiggins. He beat Contador in a similar stage last year I remember. Think this stage might suit Gilbert a bit more than Stage 1. Chavanel looks in superb form, so wouldnt be surprised to see him take it down. Danny Martin might be one to keep an eye on here, think his main goal is to pinch a stage this year.

Chavanel and Gilbert for me. Profile looks like one BMC would target with a couple of very good classic riders in Gilbert and Evans

EBH with a cover on Sagan for me, possibly to trade in play if it's looking like it's between just the pair of them.

This was the finish of the 2011 French National Road Race, won by Chavanel. Higher caliber of opposition today though.

Cancellera, Valverde, Gilbert podium for me - hope Sagan proves me wrong because I like the kid. I have a sneaky feeling the finish will be too tough for EBH, think he will struggle in the final 700m with the steepness.

Hello cycling fans. I've layed Sgan for today's stage.
Does anyone know where to find the live graphic on the offical TDF site please? Cant find it anywhere.

Been steadily adding a few all morning, getting a bit ridiculous... All big prices, all each way.
Should have just had one decent bet on Sagan!

Peter Velits
Dan Martin
Matty Goss
Ryder H
Rob Gesink
Marco Marcato
and Teejay V G when there was a little rumour Gilbert was sick, probably rubbish though...

HoD mate, anyone who read your comments relating to the winner of the prologue cares, or should care if they're interested in gaining an insight of the winner.

I like Gilbert if I get matched at a better price, but just some loose change on Valverde - run up suits him. Dan Martin isn't a stupid idea, but I'll wait to see. No reason why Spartacus can't go again, however his SanRemo crap won't work here as evidenced by stage 1 finish.

Cheers,
SP

Gilbert been reported ill on Dutch TV, also has some problems with his shoes.
Report BlockingBug July 3, 2012 4:04 PM BST
The forum I'm following said he'd dropped back following all the crashes too. Not sure it's his day. Last half hour has been carnage.
Report AgainstNature July 3, 2012 4:06 PM BST
Been complete carnage, think Dan Martin is having to work his way back into Peloton too.
Report federalski July 3, 2012 4:09 PM BST
Good finish for Dan, given up on him now though...
Gonna be a fun finidh though, Gilbert of last season would of scooshed it but real open.

Has Sagan got a chance or out of it? No pics

Got a chance for sure, Chavanel a few seconds ahead, Sagan in a group of about 40 behind. Last K now.

Sagan wins, much to good.

EBH was matched around 5.0 at the lowest point and finished second although that makes it sounds a lot closer than it was. Sagan had sat up and the Norwegian was having it towards the line presumably with the clock rather than 2nd in mind. Didn't trade in the end as I had a small green on Sagan and wasn't up to speed with my stream at work.

Peter Velits 200-1 ew third wasn't a bad day!
